Bored with beige pasta? Grab a head of broccoli and a blender
SalonI admit that I foolishly began preparing myself for a return to a certain level of normalcy after getting vaccinated this spring. *** Recipe: Crisper Drawer Pasta Serves 4 Ingredients: 1/2 head of broccoli, including stems and florets 3-4 large carrots, roughly chopped 1/2 an onion or 1 shallot, roughly chopped 2 cloves of garlic, peeled 4 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese, plus more for serving 4 tablespoons of olive oil, divided 16 ounces of dry pasta Salt and pepper — or red pepper flakes — to taste Optional: 1 to 2 tablespoons of cream or half-and-half Directions: 1. In a large blender, add the broccoli, carrots, onion, garlic and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a large pan; if you're using red pepper flakes, add to the pan over medium-low heat for a few moments to allow the flavor to bloom. Add the pasta to the pan, along with the pasta water, the remaining tablespoon of oil and the parmesan cheese.
